The new Democratic organ, which was to have
commence its career in the city of New York on the

will bo abandoned altogether.
Tho heavy gale experienced in New York on the

of tho death, by drowning in Littlo River, on Monday

twenty-one, a very promising son of Commander
Tuoma? Pktigru, U. S. N., of Charleston.
Religions, Revival.
Forsomoweeks pasta deep religions feeling bag
pervaded this commanity. A revival, which began
in tho Methodist Episcopal Church, is still in pro
gress, nnd almost every denomination has shared in
-» its benefits. Sunrise meetings for prayer, nml inquiry
meetings, besides preaching, are conducted regularly
in the Methodist and first Baptist Churches, and in
several other Churches religious exercises or various
kinds arc held dally. Every thing is conducted quiet
ly. There probably never was a time when more
solemn, deep-felt seriousness rested upon the people.
, It is a beautiful thought that, in the midst of Heav
en’s merciful visitations in tho form of health and
otbor temporal blessings, the people of Savannah are
offering up prayer for spiritual blessings, and that in
answer to prayer copious Bhowcrs of Divine grace
arc descending upon tli^n.
Wo learn that the Rev. Dr. Cross, of Charleston,
who had been laboring with the stated ministry at
' tho Methodist church hero, has returned from a short j
and on Saturday, ths 10th, at this place, From the ac
knowledged reputation of Mr. Bartow aa a debater, a poor
fight aud a algnal drubbing for the Democracy waa prophe-
sled, ahd by a flew feared. It was openly assarted by the
ftbaUrf Xt. Butov, far 4«y, b.ht. th« dUcuwUm,
off In this oounty, that Oof, Sewaid was no match, for Mr.
Bartow Id debate; but the knowing ones mod«Uy said, wait
and yon will see j and we now say, after having listened to
both oI these gentlemen, that Mr.' Bartow baa bis Tull equal
to contend against, That he Is a man of finished educa
tion. dll who hear him xpoak must admit | that ho hi also
a mate of a high order of mind, U also admltteJfty all, and
when this Is accorded to him, It pause, aa a necessary con
sequence, to his opponent, Col. Sewards Mr. Bartow Is an
aduoated orator, enunciating hla sentiments molt distinctly,
embellishing with proper and graceful gesticulation, he la
with all a strong and aptreasoner. Ool. 8e ward speaks
from'tbe promptings or a strong and vigorous mind—« mind
trained to Investigation and analysts, arriving promptly
and oorreetly at the practicability ofeny question present
ed to him—hla atylo la that of nature. Nature embelllahe*
for him. where, for hla opponent, the drudgery of classic
halls comes to hit aid.
Of Col. 8eward the Democracy ol tho First Congressional
District may well bo prond, for he is a full match In mental
strength for Mr. Bartow—of that wo are. fully satisfied.
• Both speaker* appeared to fool that the mooting at tills
place was one of some Importance to Uietnaelroi, and so It
waa, for the numbers of tho mooting waa made up of intel
ligence nnd moral worth, that would compare favorably
with any similar gathering, out of a commercial city, in'tho
State of Georgia.
Mr. Dartow opened In a speech of one hour and a quar
ter, commencing with a defenco of himself against tho
chargo of opposition to the City of Brunswick, and tho
Brunswick and Florida llailroad; passing from that topio
to ap attack upon tho present federal administration and
the Democratic party, giving nn occasional sido-wlpo at tho
Squtlic'rn Rights party, as it unco existed. Ho stated that
ho was willing to havo voted for Gen. Fierce, and would
havo douo so had tho Union electoral ticket remained up,
but when tluit waa takon down, lie could not go into tho
Democratic organisation. Now mark it, he could no go into
the Democratic organisation, preferring to lay still, with hla
talent and Influence, and give Scott, tho Free Soil candi
date, a fair chance of carryiug the State, rather than act
witli the Democracy. This. I must say, Is a limited view of
public duty for a statesman to take. Patriotism, a sense of
duty, and lovo of country, will lead all, not Influenced by
party prejudice, to go where principle points. Tho excuse,
to tho absence of explanation, fixes the impression that the
Democratic party wore not pure enough for tho gentleman
to shake hands with, though tho hand was encased in cor.
roct principles, and boaded by a man to every way worthy
of support, a&ve that he bore tho name of Democrat. Should
there be a Democrat to the flrat district, who intended to
vote for Mr. Bartow, can ho, with proper self-respect, do it
now ? The Iuaugural ol Mr. Fierce he endorsed, the sent!*
rn mta were all right, and had Gon. Fierce carried out those
principles,he would have sustained his administration;
but the administration had falsified those principles, by the
appointment ot Free Seilers and &mi&em Right* men to of
fice, and therefore, ho was opposed to tho administration.
He instanced the eases ot IHx, of N. York; and Colcock, of
Charleston, in support of the fact of appointments.
Progressive Democracy he could not stand, and although
no step had been as yet taken thnt fully identified the ad
ministration with the sentiments of Douglass upon tho doc-
trino of intervention, yet there was a squinting that way,
and he was afraid, on that account, to give tho admintstra-
lion his support. I was forcibly reminded of tho anecdota
of the young lady who, as walking by tire river side with
companion of her own ago aud sex, sporting in playfjl,
romping mood, with the butterfly and the Ully, of a sudden
stopped, looked upon the surface of -tlio water, and bruko
Into a flood of tears. The companion hastened to her side
and urged a ravolation of the cause of distress. Why, she
replied, I was thinking if I should get married, nnd have a
llttfe baby, and my little baby was to fall luto this river
and get drowned, bow bad 1 should feel 1
Tho grief 6f tho young lady was aa premature aa tho ap
prehension of tho gontloman. Tho young lady must first
marry, then hare a baby, all possible; then the baby must
fall into the river, (improbable) before tears are necessary.
The question of intervention must be prosenlod to onr gov
ernment and avowod ns their policy, nil possible but high
ly Improbable, before the gentleman need lash himscl into
a foam oi terror at the doctrine.
The reply of Col. Howard was a bold nnd manly display of
native eloquenco. He defended Gen. Fiorco and his admin
istration most ably and successfully, from every charge
made against it, and it is sufficient to say, that the Democ
racy were proud of their champion.
Mr. Bartow charged Judgo Johnson with favoring inter
vention ; Mils was refuted, nnd led to a discussion of Mr.
Jenkins's Toto upon the Algerine Law, and to the reply of
Mr Bartow. I wan sorry to hear him apologias for that voto
But ho did apologize for Jenkins upon this subject, and
went so far as to say that he mag have vied for it; admitted
that he was to the House at the time, but had m> recollec
tion ns to tho voto upon it.
So much for the speakers nnd their speeches. The time
is now near at hand when the votes will^ecidu tho contest.

A gentleman engaged in the cotton trade stated that
frequent complaints had been made in New Orleans
and other cities regarding tho want of greater uni
formity in cotton quotations in New York. This
arose from the fact that quotations wore given by each
broker for himself, without consulting with others in
the same business. Thus, ono merchant in New Or
leans might receive from his New York broker the
quotation of 10 cents for middling cotton. Another
might have it quoted to him at laic.; aud ft third at
10| to 10£c. This irregularity, it wiw considered,

Whereas, Very serious embarrassments havo been
thrown in the way of tho action of this Court, first
by the postponement of tho trial of tlio original Pre

And, whereas, the Convention of the Diocese or I
Now Jersey has, through n committee of its most in-1
tluenttal and honorable laymen, satisfied itself that,'
whatever may havo been tho imprudencies in word i
and act of tho respondent, there was no intention ol'
congregation. During his short residence here, Mr.
Hughes had endeared himself to a large number of
persons beyond tho circle of his church. He was a
man of grent benevolence of heart, and earnest in
behalf of all moral reforms. Among tho temperance
men he was greatly beloved and respected. Wo have
no recollection of any one freer from cant, or the in

The whole difficulty in tlio Democratic party 1 p. UI ,^ ^ also made another improvement in our mail

put down tho better. President Pierce will purauo
the even tenor of his way, and will not fail to receive
the continued confidence and support of all who re
gard the welfare of their party and the interests of
their country. Says the editor of the Journal:
Neither a Philadelphia lawyer, nor tho very Old Harry
blmaelt could unravel the euUnglenienU of political par
ties to this State. In common with all Southern Democrats,
our sympathies have been, nnd still aro. to n great extent,
with the Hunker wing of the Democratic party ; but it is
Impossible to avoid the conclusion that, to the difficulties
which at present distract tho party here, both factions are
to blame. It l* susceptible of proof that no appointment,
has been made from among those formerly adhering to the
Barnburner schism where tlio appointee does not take his
stand upon the compromise and the Baltimore platform :
and yet, the '* hard sheila " seek to denounce all such, and
ostracise the “aotta" for matters behind the record. If
political conventions are good for anything—If they serve
any nseful purpose St all—it U in reconciling differences
and thereby producing united action. What man. or body
of men would go into convention at all, If they felt that,
wrhllo participating in the organization of a party, and la
boring for Im success to accordance with the platform
adopted, they were still to be considered aliens, and debar
red froth any of the honor* or emoluments at ita disposal, in
ease of success. It would be contrary to human nature,
and Is a' thing hot to be expeoted.
Of courso.you are aware that 0*1. Forney Is certainly to

am by no means sanguine of ita success in reconciling or

thoir port uuu Cuba. Wa are not at all surprised at
tills slop. It is Just like Savannah. It is perfectly
consistent witli that vigorous energy, and clear, Tar
seeing enterprise which has always characterized her
tncrcuauts. We would not bo ut ail astonished even
to bud a movement on foot there, for a line of steam
ers to Europe 5 say Antwerp, Bremen or the mouth
of tho Rliiue. If soino of our own merchants could
pass a week or two in Savannah ; becomo acquainted
with her citizens, and take notice ot the .amount of
business done there daily, a different Idea would be
entertainod of the importance to us of a speedy and
regular steam communication between Savannah and
Baltimore. We havo 'exhausted all our statistics—
havo shown all the advantages of that port, in acom-
nicrciul point of view ; and here, while we arc deba
ting whether to place a couple of steamers between
this place and a rich trade, in I Savannah snggests a
line of steamers to Cuba. Suppose any one were to
propose steamers between Baltimore aud Cuba? We
must wake up.—2to/f. Times, 10th.
Collision on the Seaboard 5c Roanoke Road.
At about 12 o’clock, M., on yesterday (Thursday)
a collision took place on tho above road at Newson’s
depot, thirty miles from Weldon, between the ex
press train fmm Portsmouth, and a baggage train,
which was endeavoring to got off tlie track upon tho
turu-out at the depot. Tho engines and tenders of
both trafus were thrown off tho track and very con
siderably injured—tho tenders being completely
wreckeu, and the baggnge crates of the passenger
train pretty much used up, but without Injury to tho
baggage.
Mr.Shannon,the engineer of the express train,
was tho only person injured to any extent; one of
his legs was completely smashed between tho engine
and tender, and tho other somowbnt hurt, tho limb
waa amputated just below the knee. Mr. Shannon
resides in Portsmouth, and has a wlfo and family
there. His recovery is doubtful, considering the in-,
jury and the dreadful shock and loss of blood. Anotli
cr man who waa on the cugino or tender, although
not belonging to it, got a severe out on tho bead by
jumping off.

Tlio editor of the Dundee (N. Y.) Record has late
ly been making a tour through Canada, in tlio course
ot which lie visited a large number of fugitive staves
at their residences, and conversed freely with them
on their position and prospects. Tlio tone of their
remarks generally was that of disappointment at the
reception with which they had met, nnd tlio estima
tion in which they wore hold in tho country where
they were sojourning. They had been led to'suppose
by the abolition instigators of their esenpe from ser
vitude, that in the British provinces they would find a
home in which they would bo regarded as citizens,
with the same rights nnd advantages, social and po
litical, as were enjoyed by the other inhabitants.—
This they found not to be the case ; hut. on the con
trary, they experienced indignities greater than any
they had ever met witli in the States wlicnco they
had (led. Besides, tlie climate was ungenial to their
tropical tastes and Imbita, and their neighbors ne
glected noopportunityof taking advantage of their
ignorance for purposes of fraud and imposition.—
Altogether, Uieir situation was reverse of desirable.
Tlio editor of tho Record adduces tho following as in
stances of tho general feeling of regret ut tbo unsatis
factory change tlmt their escape to Canada had
brought in their condition:
*• Three declared that were it not for fear of punish
ment, by being sold to Texas nnd Mississippi slave
dealers, they would gladly return to thoir* old planta
tions,’ nnd spend tho remainder of their days with
their old innwtere, where they were more happy nnd
lived easier than they do now. Two others find been
in Canada from five to ten yearn—had bought land,
and were doing well in raising * truck ’ for market.—
One expressed Ids determination to return to his miss
in North Carolina ns soon ns he could get money to
do so, nnd run the risk of punishment, but ns he hud
got n friend to write to his mistress, asking pardon
and hogging for a pnsmge ticket home, he felt iu
ho|>w lie should get back to tho old North State be
fore cold weather sets in.’’
The bound Dues.
The tax or toll, which has for centuries been exact
ed by Denmark from nil foreign vessels passing
through the Sound into the Baltic, inis long been a
source of vexation to nnvigators, and wo are glad to
learn from tho Boston Post tlmt an effort is about to
Iks mndo by our government to abolish it. These
“ dues," as they are called, aro of no Inconsiderable
value, being assessed on the cargo ; nnd being an im
portant source of revenue to Denmark, will not ho re
linquished without a struggle. It would bo difficult
to assign any sufficient reason why the maritime
